(b) The statement containing the number of operational Anganwadi Centres functioning in Government owned buildings, community buildings and rented premises is placed at Annexure.
(c) to (e) A total of 50,000 AWCs (@10,000 AWCs per year) to be constructed under convergence with MGNREGS for a five year period ending FY 2025-26. As part of sustained engagement with States/ UTs for effective implementation of the Anganwadi Services on the ground, review meetings to address the gaps and improving infrastructure are taken on a regular basis. Keeping in view the escalation of rates of construction materials and wages (skilled/ semi skilled, unskilled), the cost of construction of AWC buildings under convergence with MGNREGA has been revised to Rs.12.00 lakh per AWC of out of Rs.8.00 lakh would be provided under MGNREGS, Rs.2.00 lakh under 15th Finance Commission funds (any other untied funds) and Rs.2.00 lakh by MWCD per AWC to be shared between Centre and States/UTs in the prescribed cost sharing ratio.
